Western Sussex Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust runs Worthing Hospital, Southlands Hospital in Shoreham-by-Sea and St Richard's Hospital in Chichester, West Sussex, England. It was formed through a merger in 2009 and started with a substantial inherited deficit, mortality issues and poor performance.

In April 2014 the maternity Unit at Worthing and St Richard's was awarded the prestigious ‘level three’ award for the Clinical Negligence Scheme for Trusts (CNST).[1]

In 2016 Western Sussex Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust (WSHFT) was rated as 'Outstanding' by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).[2] At the time it was one of only three acute trusts in the country to receive the health watchdog’s highest rating by the Care Quality Commission.[3]

Marianne Griffiths, the Chief Executive, was named chief executive of the year at the Health Service Journal awards in November 2016,[4] and the top chief executive 2018.[5]
